If you’ve ever walked out of a session wondering, “Was that good enough?” — this one’s for you.

We’ll unpack why that urge to “do more” is quietly draining your energy, confidence, and joy — and how to define what enough actually means in your sessions and your life. By the end, you’ll see that the value isn’t in the extra few minutes or the per...

121. Why Documentation Feels Impossible (and What to Do About It)
If the word documentation makes your eye twitch, you’re not alone. In this episode, I unpack why staying caught up on notes, IEPs, and reports feels so hard—especially for those of us with ADHD—and what you can actually do about it. This isn’t about shame or hustle; it’s about understanding your brain, working with it, and ditching the “perfect system” that never lasts longer than a week.

120. Executive Functioning and Productivity - What Every SLP Needs to Know
Executive functioning (EF) isn’t just something you teach your students or talk about in CEUs—it’s the invisible set of skills running your day.

These skills can be strengthened, and small shifts can make a big difference in both work and home life.

118. Comparing Yourself to Others? Try This Instead
Ever find yourself scrolling, watching, or listening to colleagues and thinking, “Why am I not there yet?” You're not alone. But here’s the thing: comparison doesn’t tell you anything about you. In this episode, I’m unpacking why our brains default to “compare and despair,” how it sometimes helps, and mostly how it gets in our way. If you’ve been questioning your progress against everyone else’s highlight reel, this one’s for you. What You’ll Learn Why your brain is wired to compa...

Some days it feels like I’m living a double life. I’m in work mode -- teaching grad students or coaching SLPs -- and at the same time my brain is screaming about school picture day forms, dinner plans, or how to get the kids to practice on time.

115. Crushing It or Just Masking? The Hidden Burnout Plaguing SLPs
From the outside, you look fine. Maybe you’re the SLP who’s always polished, always on time, always hitting deadlines. Or maybe you’re the one quietly behind — reports late, notes piled up, emails unanswered — but still working hard to appear as if you’ve got it together. Either way? It’s exhausting. And it’s what we call masking. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the hidden burnout so many SLPs are carrying — whether you’re overachieving to keep up appearances or working overt...

You love your kids. You love summer. But right about now? You’ve had enough. The lack of structure, the endless snacks, the back-to-school forms piling up—it’s a lot.

112. ADHD, Self-Trust, & the Follow-Through Problem No One Talks About
Ever tell yourself, “This week will be different”… and by Tuesday, it’s a dumpster fire? Or make a To-Do List, ignore it for days, and then use that as “proof” you’re not capable? Congrats, you're human. But guess what? The problem isn’t your ability to follow through—the problem is the hit your self-trust takes when it happens. And that’s what we’re digging into today: how self-trust breaks down, why ADHD brains feel it harder, and how to rebuild it without white-knuckling your w...
